Tryptic Soy Broth (Soybean-Casein Digest Broth) Dehydrated Culture Media

Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB) is meticulously formulated with enzymatic digests of casein and soybean to provide a rich source of nitrogen and amino acids. Dextrose serves as a carbon energy source, while sodium chloride maintains osmotic balance and dipotassium phosphate acts as a buffering agent. This comprehensive nutritional base ensures the vigorous growth needed for reliable results. It is specifically designed to conform to the Harmonized USP/EP/JP Requirements, making it the ideal choice for quality control and microbial enumeration in regulated industries. TSB is also recommended for testing bacterial contaminants in cosmetics, and it complies with established food industry standards.

Please note: Tryptic Soy Broth is for laboratory use in the cultivation of microorganisms and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans.
